(Request) landscape ics launcher - Nexus S Themes and Apps

Could someone enable landscape support in the new ics launcher? The early sdk builds supported it but all the aosp build do not have it. Why google wouldn't enable this from the get go is beyond me.

the old launcher2 from beta3 of drewgaren has landscape mode

Yeah I tried replacing it but it didn't work. At least not for me. If you got it to work please share how.

Yeah I changed the permissions correctly.

Give this a try, it's the launcher from aosp's ICS build for the 4G, it has landscape enabled maybe it will work for you.

Good try but that didn't work either. This one installed fine but landscape is a no go.
I think I'm going to be stuck using launcher pro. I was so hoping google would get it right.

[APP][MOD]ICS launcher|3 screens|auto-rotate|Stock + CM9 Trebuchet versions

So this is essentially a combo between the stock ICS launcher + auto-rotate posted by bajansurfer and the 3 screen stock ICS launcher posted by matt_stang. what i'm posting is a 3 screen launcher which auto-rotates for landscape mode. I'm running oICSv26 and it works flawlessly (the app is actually sourced from koush's build). obviously i didn't create these mods, but only really combined them.
you should know what to do with this, not compatible with Gingerbread ROMs. rename to Launcher2.apk and push to system/app and set permissions or copy to system/app and set permissions to rw-r--r-- or:
Code:
x x -
x - -
x - -
in the root explorer permission grid.
download
updated with middle screen as default.
CM9 Trebuchet Launcher2 with 3 screens (includes preferences with enable/disable auto-rotate. version 0.1, Dock and Icons in preferences no workie)
Nice. Does having 3 screens use less Random Access Memory?

no idea, guess in theory it would but I don't know if it does in the real world. I just only need 3 screens.

Good work man, thanx for your efforts. I actually use 5 screens now with the email widgets in ics being available but you know I appreciate the work that goes into this stuff
I found one in aosp's thread with preferences option in it if you want to mod that one for three screen folks

I just updated to the newest version back in Feb I think it was on a GB based rom, then made a titanium backup of the app, not the installer just the app. Flash any ROM you wan and then re-install via TB done it a dozen times and swype works perfectly every time, hope this helps!
I just downloaded from the site and it worked fine, no modding

OK, after you download it, just install with package installer then add it from settings. If you push it to system/app it seems to act up..at least it was for me. Enjoy!

This looks and works great!
I hadn't used Swype in a long time, since I bought swiftkey. This themed Swype is pretty slick - I'd love to see better predictive text implemented into it.

[29/04/2012] Sense 4 Launcher v2

I finally after hours of work i have managed to port a Sense 4 Style Launcher to our Xoom this may not be everyone's cup of tea but i hope you like
V2 is slightly different and now has a new looking menu system. if you dont like this use V1. i have also made a few changes to the resizing just to smarten things up a little more
See pics below and remember if you like please say thanks
Special thanks to
ra3al for the APK Xperia Base from Xperia
Yngwie for the help in porting the features and resizing
Looks nice can't wait to try it

Im pretty sure its 160 the standard DPI
Is this specifically made for tablets? I used 160 dpi and its to large, I went down and used 120 which seems really close but still off.
There is another one for 190 dpi which fits, but has some transition lag.
This as far as I could tell was super smooth even though it did not work properly on my device, droid incredible. Regular dpi 240.

Sorry this is specifically rebuilt for the Xoom and would need to be modded for other devices
If you send me a screenshot I can try to edit to fit your device

(In case anyone cares) touchwiz ux launcher installed and worked

I got the touchwiz ux launcher (phone) to install and work. It looks ridiculous cuz its the phone version but it means the Samsung tab launcher should install with the tw.lib files. I'll try to get the tab version.

Nice, let us know how you get on with the tab version. Would love to get the Multi Window app working.

Other than for the kick off it.. Why would anyone want to use TouchWiz on a Nexus 7... for that matter any nexus device?
But good going though.. Albeit for the kick of knowing we can do what we want to with our Nexii.. cheers :beer:

Multi window is all that comes to mind, not sure if its worth giving up vanilla for. To each is own.
